Description

Both Britain and America stand at a place where society's predominant values are secular and cross-culturally aware. In Britain, Christian values and religious beliefs are now generally seen only as part of an all-inclusive whole, deserving of no more consideration and respect than any other beliefs. Once the English Church and the State were two sides of the same coin. Longley claims that England is losing its identity and confidence as a nation because it has all but denied its religious roots. But America still claims to be "God's own country".;Events of the 11th of September 2001 have given a new urgency to some of the hottest topics of the 21st century. What makes America so strong and yet so vulnerable? Why do the British and Americans so often stand side by side? What are the real roots of their common history? And what about the future for Britain and the USA, particularly in a world threatened by a terrorism which claims religion as its heart?
